Despite an unprecedented year due to COVID-19, including necessary public health restrictions and uncertainty surrounding the economy, Greater Toronto Area REALTORS reported over 95,000 home sales in 2020 the third-best result on record. The average selling price reached a new record of almost $930,000. The Greater Toronto Area housing market followed an unfamiliar path in 2020. Following the steep COVID-induced drop-off in demand during the spring, home sales roared back... to record levels throughout the summer and fall. A strong economic rebound in many sectors of the economy, ultra-low borrowing costs and the enhanced use of technology for virtual open houses and showings fuelled and sustained the housing market recovery, said Lisa Patel, Toronto Regional Real Estate Board (TRREB) President. Highlights from 2020 include: 95,151 sales were reported through TRREB’s MLS System up by 8.4 per cent compared to 2019. This included a record result for the month of December, with 7,180 sales a year-over-year increase of 64.5 per cent. Year-over-year sales growth was strongest in the GTA regions surrounding Toronto, particularly for single-family home types. The average selling price reached a new record of $929,699 up by 13.5 per cent compared to 2019. This included an average price of $932,222 in December a year-over-year increase of 11.2 per cent. The strongest average price growth was experienced for single-family home types in the suburban regions of the GTA.
